I’m not getting paid to write about Chick-fil-A Cow Appreciation Day, we genuinely just like dressing like cows and getting free chicken lol!

Easy No Sew DIY Cow Costume

Cow Appreciation Day at Chick-fil-A is one of our favorite holidays of the year! Cow Appreciation Day is typically in July. If you go to Chick-fil-A, dressed like a cow on this day, you will receive a free entree and kids can get a free kids meal! We created a super simple cow costume and I thought I’d share our cow headband template with you, so you can make your own. You still have time and this tutorial is easy enough to do in under 30 minutes. If you don’t have felt, you could even use card stock. Happy Cow Appreciation Day and Mooooo!

Step 4: Hot glue the ovals to the headband, as shown in the photo below. You will be using 2 ovals per ear, sandwiching the headband. Wrap the bottom of the oval around the headband and secure with hot glue. Hot glue the 2 ovals to each other.

Step 6: To make a simple cow shirt, cut spots out of black sticky felt and attach to a plain white t-shirt. You can remove the felt after use, when you don’t feel like being a cow anymore.
